Peavey

With a legacy built on innovation, precision, and unmatched audio craftsmanship, Peavey Electronics has shaped the landscape of music and sound for nearly sixty years. What began in 1965 as a modest endeavor in a small Mississippi basement evolved into one of the world’s largest manufacturers of professional audio systems, amplifiers, and musical instruments. From the outset, the mission was clear: to revolutionize the way music is created, heard, and experienced. That mission still drives every product that bears the Peavey name—trusted by musicians, sound engineers, and venues across more than 130 countries for performance, durability, and sonic excellence.

Peavey’s foundation was laid by a determined audio enthusiast who built his first amplifier by hand after being denied access to existing music gear due to high costs. This spirit of defiance against convention shaped a business model rooted in in-house design, vertical integration, and independent manufacturing—resulting in over 180 patents and breakthrough technologies that redefined amplification and sound reinforcement. Peavey’s commitment to quality and originality continues to inspire music creators across genres and generations. Today, that same spirit powers a global enterprise that still believes being different is the only way to be better.
